Why C seriously scares me, reason #17:

Say a is an array and i is an integer. Then a[i] is equivalent to i[a].

Of course, it makes sense when you consider that in C, a[i] is equivalent to *(a+i), but that is still seriously freaky.

Current Mood: freaked out

OK. C may scare me, but you scare me more.

Er... in that case... C scares me more than you! Ha!

That didn't work too well, did it?

Purple tic-tacs are all well and good, but how do they relate to celery and slim jims?
